Masked men hunted after jewellery raid

Two masked men who stole jewellery in a smash and grab on a shop are being hunted by police.

The men targeted McGowans jewellers in New Kirk Road, Bearsden, East Dunbartonshire, at around noon yesterday. A window was smashed and a quantity of rings and bracelets were taken by the pair in what Police Scotland said was a "high value" theft.
